The Tenant(s) will note the condition of the unit and its furnishings and return the form to the Landlord within 7 days. The Tenant(s) is entitled to receive a copy of the last ending inventory checklist which shows what claims were charged to the last prior Tenant(s).
The Landlord may use the security deposit only for: 1) actual damages that are the result of conduct not reasonably expected in the normal course of habitation of the dwelling; 2) past due rent and rent due for premature termination of this agreement; and 3) utility bills not paid by Tenant(s).
As required by Michigan law regarding use of security deposits, where there are charges against the security deposit the Landlord will mail an itemized list of damage charges and other costs to the Tenant(s) within 30 days of the ending of occupancy along with a check or money order for the difference between these charges and the total amount of the deposit. The Tenant(s) must respond within 7 days of receipt of this itemized list to secure full rights. If agreement is not reached about the amount claimed, the Landlord must begin court action within 45 days after the ending of occupancy and obtain a money judgment for the disputed amount before retaining any portion of it.
You must notify your Landlord in writing within 4 days after you move of a forwarding address where you can be reached and where you will receive mail; otherwise your Landlord shall be relieved of sending you an itemized list of damages and the penalties adherent to that failure.
